MyWolfe-008 Final
DOSBOX work
the Dosbox complains that there is not libGL.so.1. In the other puppy versions I used the LibSDL1.2-forDoom.pup that MU had in his repository. But I can't invoke this version for the new kernel and MyWolfe edition. Any conversion or compatible .pet available? Thanks.
Skype install
Skype requires qt
so look for qt4-4.3.2.pet install that.
go to
http://www.puppylinux.ca/tpp/ttuuxxx/Libs ( user name: puppy password : linux )
look for libXss-1.0.0tar.gz download that an untar these copy the four files into
/my-applications/lib
restart X and start Skype from the Internet menu
I searched for Skype-2.0.0.72.pet installed that
so look for qt4-4.3.2.pet install that.

I have not found the tools needed to open up the file LibSDL1.2-forDoom.pup so I am unable to be sure what is inside. I can make a lot of guesses but then you would be putting a lot on you system that is not needed. If you have a copy of an old utility called pup2pet and can send it to me I will try and put you a package together. for I can not find it.
Did some more looking around and my video card will not allow me to play it but yours mite here is a link to the files you need to get phboom working on MyWolfe

Please let me know how it goes

Go to this link
http://www.murga-linux.com/puppy/viewto ... 799081a391
Be sure and get the sfs4 version and you will still have to make a link from the /usr/jave/jre1.6.0_17/plugin/i386/ns7/libjavaplugin_oji.so to /usr/lib/mozilla/plugins then restart browser,
I had rename the sfs to just java.sfs to get MyWolfe to load the sfs.
Have fun

Good evening, GrumpyWolfe
Please find attached a little .desktop entry for your very useful control panel. Put the attached file in the top ("/") directory and it should unpack in /usr/share/applications. Your control panel will now have an entry in the "Setup" submenu. Although it is in the ROX panel, I thought it might be nice to have it also in the menu.
Maybe it's just me or my box, but I had a segmentation error in mywolfe's mtpaint: I could not load large pictures, mtpaint closed instantly. So I replaced it with BK's one for quirky at http://distro.ibiblio.org/pub/linux/dis ... ed-q1.pet. Barry's one works fine.
Also, for information, my latest wmx 7 pet package (the wmx window manager) works better in mywolfe than in dpup, in that it shows correctly the "x" in mywolfe when closing a program (in dpup it doesn't, which is confusing).
All in all, you did present a fine puplet: thank you and keep up the good work!
Sincerely,

Hi musher0
I did have a menu entry in the MyWolfe 6 but when I decided to try out the side bar I removed it to reduce reduce. I am trying to make a clean and clutter free distro for myself and anybody that likes it. Thank you for the complement on my puplet.
I am now working on ver 9 for while trying to get dos-box to work for someone I found that ver 8 does not have the full xserver in it and I am not sure how I did this for it only give me a versa driver and that does not let dos-box work for me so I will redo MyWolfe and then make a sfs of dos-box with some extra libs to make it work, for you see I have to keep my iso under 100 megs to host them where I am now.

Re: MyWolf-009 Final
I'm finding current versions are halting the OS but not powering offndujoe1 wrote:Using an older pentium III computer. MyWolfe does not want to shutdown completely when I invoke that command. I have to physically hold in the power button for 5 seconds. Other puppy's have shut down ok. I tried using poweroff from the command line and the same result occurred.

known issue with some motherboards.
Try the command wmpoweroff and see whether that works
for you.

Thanks for the suggestion but that didn't work either.
Hello again, GrumpyWolfe.
You say:
I had no problem getting DOSBox to work under mywolfe using the version 0.73 that I have mentioned above, and the SDL-1.2.13-i486.pet, which is here: http://www.murga-linux.com/puppy/viewto ... h&id=18747
You say:
Well, as for me, in mywolfe 0.08, I have Xorg in /usr/X11R7/bin/, with a size of 1379584, and... NO vesa! (Actually, there is no vesa program, but 2-3 libraries are present under /usr/something. Also, when I type "xorgwizard" in the console, the xorg configuration panel appears, there is no choice for xorg or xvesa.)GrumpyWolfe wrote:Hi musher0

DosBox success!
Miusher 0, thanks for your instructions and guide. Dosbox is working now in MyWolfe. It allows me to transition to the MyWolfe Iso as I use the Ensemble 3.0 software from www.breadbox.com daily.
Re: DosBox success!
My pleasure, 't'was nothing at all! I'm not familiar with Ensemble. I gather that it works from a dos foundation?ndujoe1 wrote:Miusher 0, thanks for your instructions and guide.

Ensemble 3.0
yes after a fashion. It is an operating system in itself. And was ported to the Commodore, Apple, Mac and IBM. Developed originally on a Solaris workstation. It is a multithreading OS.
It lost the OS race, along the way due to funding, and mismanagement. Frank Fischer is attempting to get it back in the public eye through breadbox.com

yes you need dosbox to run Ensemble under linux.
SFS conversion
Thanks for your instructions and suggestion about .sfs conversion. I expanded my personal save file size and did a conversion of the open office .sfs and it works nicely now in MyWolfe.
Re: SFS conversion
Yeah, I remember, on the "Abiword not working" thread. It's great that you installed something substantial to write with!ndujoe1 wrote:Thanks for your instructions and suggestion about .sfs conversion.

Google Chrome
Does the Linux version of Google Chrome update itself or do we need to re-download a new issue of MyWolfe iso as these occur?
